Marion Bay Viewing Platform Project

The idea of a viewing platform at Marion Bay was conceived in 2011 after beach access was disrupted in 2009, rains lead to the Bream Creek river mouth moving several hundred metres to the south blocking traditional accesses to the beach. A new track developed but was not obvious to unfamiliar visitors who would aimlessly wander across the dunes looking for the best beach access. This resulted in eroding a cut in the dune that risked developing into a blow out with subsequent destruction of the dune.
